Tank... am I the only one appalled at the double-standard?

[Faerluna]

Oh and I find that attempted jab about the 15 year old really ironic given your commentary about Miss Teen South Carolina. Does it hurt talking out of both sides of your face like that?

P-P-P-POW!

I'm supposed to stop rooting for a team because I disagree with a front office decision? Or a draft selection? Or a coach firing? Sorry, I'm not that dramatic. Not did I ever make such a threat. When Jerry says one thing but does another, those of us with a functioning brainstem are allowed to "notice." Do as I say ....

So exactly when did this franchise loose it's integrity and class?

 

[percyhoward]

Those of us with a functioning brainstem are allowed to "notice."

Whew...that lets several of us off the hook.

 

[Cajuncowboy]

No man is so worthless that he doesn't warrant a second, third, fourth chance.

Let's hope Tank takes advantage of this chance and turn his life around.

I know, but I thought I'd keep it simple. I love the 10/22 BTW. Wish I had one. I did have an SKS for a while. I was lethal with it on the range.

Is my .30 cal. M-1 Carbine, with a 10 shot magazine (Not a clip...there is a difference), considered an assault rifle? With the scope on it,it's a hell of a turkey gun!

I figure it would be exhausting trying to figure out every single aspect of someone's life, or every point of view they happen to have, simply because I root for a jersey they wear, or buy their CD, or go see their movie. I save myself a lot of grief by not caring... I like what I like, but that doesn't mean I support every aspect of a person's life.

If that means I'm a hypocrite, so be it.

Because the sheep have no scruples. I hope I don't see any more threads mocking the Bengals' travails, because we too are now in the criminal coddling business. I support this signing because it fills a need and I want to win. But we're no better than anyone else. That's the point. Indeed, that's the lament.

The way the Fish started the 2nd half was evidence enough for me that we needed to signed someone like Tank. If Cam Cameron had an ounce of sense, he would've continued pounding Reggie Brown inside.

When they get to that fifth chance, that's when we give them boot.

Can I put a thread on ignore? lol

nothing good will happen to me here!

I think the TO signing is paying dividends now and Tank is a low risk signing of a talented young PROVEN DT and don't see the big outrage here.

 

[Redball Express]

I guess I don't understand, you'd like to see a lot more outrage?

That he's made another 'right' call about Tank being a good move..

..like he said TO was/is.

We doesn't he just say that..?

I can dig it.

You can dig it..

We can dig it..

oh let's dig it, babbbyyy..!!

Might as well. I'm sorry I started it. 90% of folks missed my point entirely, despite my best efforts at clarifying it.

I was very much for T.O. I am very much for Tank.

I did not mean to insinuate that - just where the thread went. I was initially against TO but warming to what I have seen this season (Team first and production). I love the Tank signing also. No downside I see.

No one needs to solicit my opinion. I don't answer to you. Sorry to burst that bubble.

Let's see: me and a few hundred other posters rightly mocked her dearth of intelligence, whereas you indulge in teenage sex analogies. "Embrace the kink."

You did nothing wrong. You rightly pointed out Jerry's hypocrisy about building a team with character, and the usual sheep, shills and lackeys pounced. Pretty standard fare for the Zone, which is becoming Ranch-like by the day.

Jerry lied, integrity died.

The reasons were laid out for you by Ogt or was it eebs? I always mix them up.



See TO was labeled a team killer, and here we love our team the Cowboys, or Commanders in bbguns case.

So when rumors swirled we were going to sign a "team killer" we saw flashes of our team getting screwed that makes people angry and is where most of the hate come from. They hated his actions against his team.

With Tank, it is 2 fold, first his biggest crime is owning guns that were registered in his home state. Here in Texas we like guns, we buy them for our kids on Christmas. He didnt kill his team.

second, we all saw how well TO has worked out for us which makes people more willing to take another risk as low risk as it may be. Its like buying something on ebay, you buy something and get it in the mail you feel more comfortable making your next purchase, if you get screwed out of your money, you dont feel good on your next buy

Nice try at spin control. Failed miserably.

Plenty of other forums. You keep whining, yet you stay.
